Happy Monday guys! Today’s post was inspired by these strappy heels. Erick got these for my birthday a few weeks ago and it was the sweetest thing ever! If you’re a regular reader and noticed my “Currently Craving” section on the side bar, then you saw that these shoes were on there for a couple of weeks. Well my sweet sweet husband drove from mall to mall trying to find at least one of the items on that sidebar and finally found these in my size at Nordstrom. I loved hearing his story of how he got out of work early that day and had to be super sneaky to pick up a cake, balloons, flowers & these cuties!

I love starting an outfit with a shoe and building around that. It always works + it’s a time saver for sure. A statement shoe will make any outfit. You can wear the most simple outfit but still look trendy and chic with at a great pair of statement shoes.

Mine paired perfectly with this Lilla P shirt dress. It’s from their Holiday collection and like everything they make, it’s perfect. I, of course, love the simplicity of it. It’s perfect for work and play & the clean lines make it so so chic plus the cute bow detail gives it a little extra oomph. Also, it doesn’t overshadow the cute shoes which were meant to be the focal point of this look.
